Our Missions Ministry equips disciples of Christ to share God’s love through gifts and service, creating hope and sustainable opportunities for those in need.
The FORWARD process to discern God’s future for our congregation was launched in March 2017 by Compass. Last month, after nearly a year of work and prayer, our Administrative Council approved the FORWARD team report. Beginning on April 15 this report will be shared in worship over the course of three Sundays. Pastor Elbert, Pastor Dan, and Pastor Zack will each preach about God’s future for us from a unique perspective. They will rotate preaching locations, so that over the course of three Sundays (April 15, 22, and 29) each of them will preach their FORWARD sermon in the sanctuary, at Shine in the Christian Life Center, and at our Berkley campus. Join us as we move FORWARD!
